A '''telescope''' is a device used for seeing faraway objects.<ref>{{Wikilink|Telescope}}</ref> Those used in the [[wizarding world]] are presumably magical to some extent, as they can be used to see objects that would be impossible to see with a [[Muggle]] telescope. They are essential in [[Astronomy]], and thus all [[Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry|Hogwarts]] students up to their [[fifth year]] (and their [[Sixth year|sixth]] and [[Seventh year|seventh]] should they choose Astronomy as an elective) are required to own one.<ref>''[[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone]]'' - Chapter 5 (''Diagon Alley'')</ref> [[Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment]] sells brass telescopes for five [[Galleon]]s.<ref>''[[Pottermore]]''</ref>
